An optical reactor configured such that a large number of particles 3 . . . formed of a glass material are accommodated in a glass tube 2, and a fluid L can flow through the glass tube 2 is characterized in that a contact portion between the glass tube 2 and the particles 3 . . . and a contact portion between the particles 3 . . . serve as welding surfaces J . . . each having a predetermined area so that light guides C are provided continuing to the glass tube 2 and the particles 3 . . . through the welding surfaces J. An photocatalyst layer 4 can be provided on the surfaces of the particles 3 . . . and an inner surface of the glass tube 2 except the welding surfaces J . . . . The glass tube 2 may be formed having a circular cross sectional shape or may be formed having a non-circular cross sectional shape. |
